Proud to march this weekend in Pittsburgh in my son Brendan’s memory and in support of my LGBTQIA friends. Hope to see you there! 🏳️🌈

Today on @MLB’s #LouGehrigDay, we’re pleased for @baseballcanada’s partnership in raising awareness of ALS. Be sure to cheer on Canada’s Senior National team this afternoon as they play their Olympic qualifier against Venezuela. Good luck!
👏👏👏@mlb. LG is a person worth honouring and #ALS is a condition worth raising awareness about. My mom was both an LG fan and fellow sufferer of ALS. She would have welcomed this initiative. I honour her memory on this day as well. Please support ALS research if you can.
On MLB's inaugural #LouGehrigDay, we celebrate the life and legacy of “The Iron Horse” and pledge to continue supporting the ongoing fight against ALS.
Informative thread from @TSN_Sports
Women have been in hockey since the game’s inception.
On #InternationalWomensDay, we’re celebrating all the women who have left their mark on the game, and all those who continue to do so.
We also want to highlight some pivotal moments and ceiling-smashing firsts. ⬇️

There were a lot of great plays in the NHL this weekend. But this pass from Marner to Matthews might be the best pass I've ever seen. I watched it multiple times to make sure he did it on purpose...he did.
Fake-slap-shot-give-and-go-one-touch pass on the tape for a goal. UNREAL.

Connor McDavid a HUMAN CHEAT CODE. 😱🤯

Is there anything more satisfying than going to check on your 9 yo daughter to make sure her online school is going OK and getting waved out and told “Get the heck out, Dad. Can’t you see I’m busy?”
This makes sense. The players that actually qualify, ought to be the group that plays in the tournament. si.com/hockey/news/how-to-fi…
